URC3610, URC3640, URC3660: How does the backlight work on my Essential?
The backlight is activated by any key press and remains on for 10 seconds. Any key press during these 10 seconds will extend the timeout by another 10 seconds. To activate/deactivate the backlight please press the Light key at the bottom of the remote.
The batteries will last the same whether the backlight is on or not. Please always use non-rechargeable batteries from a well-known brand.
